Imagine spending Christmas with Tom Cruise.
You and Tom were rarely home at the same time, but this year, for this holiday, you both managed to get lucky and be between projects, meaning you were both in the penthouse. He made himself busy with setting up for the holiday despite not being a celebrator of it himself - it was all for you. The Christmas tree, the stockings, the tinsel around the house, the decorations, he put them up himself rather than hire a decorator because frankly, he’d do anything for you.
You were more than ecstatic with all that he was doing, and you couldn’t stop giggling when he lifted you up, his strong hands on your waist, to put the star on the top of the tree. During all of this, you couldn’t stop smiling. The penthouse was looking more festive than you ever imagined that it could.
You grew up with family Christmases, not fancy ones, you didn’t grow up rich, but with a lot of heart, and a lot of spirit. Tom was trying to replicate that with the same blinking lights that played Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer when a certain button was pressed, and the old fashioned felt skirt around the bottom of the tree. To you, this was perfect, absolutely perfect.
Which lead you into hugging him once you were back down on the ground, holding him tightly. “You didn’t have to do all of this,” You told him. “I know you’re not into it-”
“I’m into what you’re into,” He told you, with a laugh. “And I have to admit, it does spruce the place up a bit.”
“Don’t you mean pine the place up a bit?” You quipped, horribly. He rolled his eyes but let out a laugh anyway. He was used to your sense of humor by now.
“Sure. Do we have to wait for Christmas Eve to put the presents under the tree, or can we start stacking them now?”
“As long as you don’t open them until morning, love. That’s one of the best parts.”

Okay this is my first time ever posting something like this here and it's about to be long af and probably very sappy.
(Reddit style post)
So I, 26(F), am heavily crushing on this guy 24(M) at work. We work in a pretty big hospital but in different departments. He's the head of the clinic right across from mine (I'm also in charge of my own clinic).
This crush actually came out of nowhere. I've seen him around the hospital ever since he got there (I've been there longer than he has) and I see his name a lot on certain little "committees". The earliest memory I have of ever interacting with him was back when I was still working in the Emergency Department and he was up at the MedSurg floors. I was transporting a patient upstairs after sending the report and all I can remember from my interaction with him was "Glasses". I'm really good with faces, not so much with names.
After that, I would see him here and there like the cafeteria, the lobbies, the hallways, elevators, even the committees that he and I will unknowingly both be in. He was never on my radar at all (mostly because I was also in a relationship with someone at the time).
We didn't really start actually knowing each other until his best friend/roommate (who's also the head of another department) invited me to a Murder Mystery party at their house.
At this point, I was closer to his roommate (we'll call him Jack (28M)) than I was to him even though Jack got to the hospital a few months after he did (we'll call Crush boy "Ben"). Jack and I got to know each other because I would cross over to his department to steal ice chips daily for my own consumption. Anyway, Jack added me on Facebook and invited me to a Halloween themed Murder Mystery party this year. Of course I said yes because 1) I get to dress up and 2) I LOVE Murder Mysteries.
Sorry, getting derailed. Anyway, Jack and his wife opened up their house to a few friends for this party. I think that was when I started noticing him a little bit. I was in full monster make up and Ben was the investigator. One of my objectives was to talk to his character yaddi yaddi yadda.
With me being the competitive person that I am, I started knocking out my objectives and approached him. We got talking and I noticed that he was actually pretty cute. Not just in the physical sense, but his little mannerisms and such were very endearing. But not wanting to be distracted, I moved on to my list (I eventually figured it out and won best costume).
With the game over, Jack, a few others and I were sitting around the kitchen island just talking about work related things (I was ranting about my boss and Jack was talking about one of his problem employees who I happened to know as well). Ben walked in with his costume Saber prop in hand and just listened in to our conversations. From work topics, we moved on to things we liked to do in our spare time. I mentioned that I love Star Wars (which Jack knew) and watching certain TV shows. I mentioned a few that Ben was also watching so he was able to join in on the conversations. We all talked until it was time to go.
Right before we left, I went to go use the restroom and after coming out, I noticed a Stormtrooper helmet with a unique design on it. I mentioned how cool I found it to Jack but he told me it wasn't his. It was Ben's. At the sound of his name, Ben peeked around the corner while messing with his props and it was at that moment that I felt my body feel like tv static. All of a sudden, my heart started pounding and my palms started sweating and he was all I could see. Immediately I was like "oh sh*t".
It's been downhill ever since. Now every time I see him at work, I get nervous and I either want to run the other direction or make fun of him. I have literally turned into a high schooler with a giant crush on someone she shouldn't be crushing on.
We ran into him one time at the Info desk and I casually threw in the invitation to my best friend's (we'll call her Rinny (24F)) birthday. I invited both him and Jack but it was completely innocent (he and Rinny met through the flu drive which he helped out at and Rinny was spearheading it). When he found out the time, he was all "that's so late. I have a bed time." See whenever guys say this, I usually understand it as a polite way of saying thank you but no thanks. So I let it go. When I mentioned the party to Jack, he said the same thing too but asked if we wanted to do a birthday dinner on a different day. I brought it up to Rinny and she said she was down for it so I said yes. And then Jack asked if he could bring Ben. Honestly I should've said NO because my dumbass was trying to sort out why Ben was making me feel things but I didn't want to be rude so I said "sure."
So me being the dumbass that I am, drank a lil ol' liquid courage so I wouldn't spazz out and be nervous and next thing I know I was Chatty Cathy who didn't know what Personal Bubble was. I was super embarrassed and apologized after to Jack to let Ben know (I didn't have Ben's phone number or socials or anything at the time). Jack reassured me that I had nothing to apologize for and that if Ben was really uncomfortable, he would've pushed me away. Fair.
Fast forward to now. It's been almost 2months of me feeling like this and I'm still free falling like I'm back in high school. I've had 2 relationships and I just got out of a 1year weird situationship (I've been "single" since May of this year) and yet none of them has made me feel like Ben has. Everyone is telling me to go for it and to just tell him to his face but I don't want to make things even more awkward than they already are. I don't want to date anyone because I'm trying to sort out my own baggage and he hasn't dated anyone either for more than a year (everyone has confirmed that he's been single this whole time). I dont want to just hook up with him either because he's a genuine great guy and I'm not really that person that can do random hook-ups.
Oh and the kicker? He knows I like him. I'm not subtle at all. I overheard a conversation with him and Jack where Jack said "hey your cute secret admirer stopped by my office today" and I had just told Ben that I came from annoying Jack. Cue me lamenting my fate.
So yes. I am down bad for this man. I can't shut up about him. Every time I see him, my day brightens a bit. If I'm in a bad mood, it lessens when he talks to me. But I know he doesn't feel the same way. The vibes aren't vibing on his end and I am completely okay with that. I'm satisfied with just a friendship between us. Besides, I'm leaving in 6months to a whole new country because I accepted a job offer there wayyyy before this whole thing with Ben started.
Just needed to get all of that off my chest because I feel like I'm going insane and Rinny is tired of me talking about him constantly when I don't intend of making any moves.
Well i’m sure you are sick of Glen by now, anyways! That quite the compliment, thank you. I rarely ever hear him get called Pete too, so bonus points for you. @txcruise
how did you guess that part? i was born sick of him but we won’t tell him, okay? i love getting bonus points, makes me feel like some sort of winner.
What's everybody majoring in in your Critical Role Modern AU?
okay first of all i am SO excited that there are not only people reading my fic, but people interested enough in it to be asking questions about it!!
the short answer is that a lot of characters aren’t actually students, they’re either old enough to have graduated and progressed to having jobs now, or never went to college in the first place, but of the ones who are studying things:
keyleth is double-majoring in ecology/organismal biology & conservation
percy is majoring in physics and mechanical engineering, and minoring in math (which kind of sounds like a death sentence but i think that’s appropriate for him, and also i have real actual friends attempting equally ambitious things so. there are people that do that)
cassandra is majoring in political science
and allura is a grad student working on a thesis on quantum mechanics
